Can't subscribe to newsgroup

How can I subscribe to alt.windows-xp on certain news servers?
some news servers carry both:

alt.windows-XP 0000000689 0000000622 y
alt.windows-xp 0000041454 0000039481 y


In view of your OS I'm curious how you captured these lines?
I'm guessing you simulated the NNTP connection with telnet 119
(e.g. using HyperTerminal?) and issued a LIST command?


BTW glad to see you have found a workaround. : )
